Shacman SX331862306C 8×4 Tipper Truck

The Shacman SX331862306C is a 12-wheel ultra-heavy-duty tipper truck engineered for the most demanding mining, quarry, and large-scale infrastructure applications. Built on the proven X5000 platform, this 8×4 configuration combines a high-torque Cummins M13 engine, a reinforced double-layer chassis, and a wear-resistant NM450 steel cargo body to deliver reliable performance under continuous heavy-load cycles. With a payload capacity of 41–50 tons and Euro 5 emission compliance, the SX331862306C is purpose-built for operators who prioritize durability, fuel efficiency, and minimal downtime.

The SX331862306C is powered by a Cummins M13E5 turbocharged diesel engine rated at 520 HP with Euro 5 emission compliance, delivering strong low-end torque for steep grades and fully loaded starts. The engine is mated to a Fast 13JSDX240T 13-speed cast-iron manual transmission featuring pneumatic shift assistance, ensuring smooth and precise gear engagement under heavy loads. An FHB400 hydraulic retarder works in tandem with the service brakes to provide reliable braking control on long downhill sections, a critical requirement for mining operations in mountainous terrain.

The truck features a reinforced double-layer frame rail measuring 8+7 mm in thickness, with local stress reinforcement plates at suspension connection points to withstand dynamic impacts during dumping and off-road travel. The front axle is a HD 9.5-ton unit with disc brakes, while the rear axle is a 16-ton double-reduction unit with a 5.262 ratio, designed for high torque output and resistance to rocky terrain. Multi-layer parabolic leaf springs absorb shock from uneven surfaces, reducing stress on the chassis during high-frequency cyclic missions–.

The cargo box measures 6500 × 2300 × 1600 mm and is constructed from NM450 wear-resistant steel with a 12 mm floor plate and 10 mm side plates, extending service life by approximately 30% compared to standard steel in abrasive mining conditions. A genuine Hyva 179 front-mounted hydraulic lifting cylinder ensures stable and secure unloading, capable of raising full loads in under 20 seconds. The truck rides on 12.00R24 mining-pattern tires with a mixed tread on the front axle and transverse pattern on the rear, offering superior load-bearing capacity and traction on unpaved gravel roads.
